Just because he's playing Graal doesn't mean he can't be good at something. I'm pretty sure he made those. I'm making signatures of the same style and quality myself (or rather made, since I dont really need any anymore), and it's not even hard.

You know what i do? I BLEND in the people i put in the signature, so its seems more like a whole then like a background with a render slapped on there.( No im not referring to your signatures, afcourse not)

no it's not, only the picture of the people in is cut out, the rest is made with photoshop, brushes effects blur sharpen etc. that ****.

edit:
srry if im a bit rude or anything, but it just pissed me off that people believe i stole them, or just cut out fo an existing wallpaper.

Well, the main signature element is mostly a person or character, and those are of course cut out of wallpapers. Who would redraw those ;o

Which is all you did, you just pasted it on a new background with some flair.

yes, and you know, I MADE THAT BACKGROUND, and then you give it lightning effects to make it blend in more,
it isn't about pasting the thing in,
but you might not believe it
I made those backgrounds, just accept that thats what it is about in this case. Signature making is about making a background, putting a character or an object in it, and make it fit in there, and you guys keep saying i past things on a background, might be, but i made those backgrounds, and i blend them in. You keep saying it are 'wallpapers' but they're not, they're the backgrounds i made for those signatures, yes, sometimes i put a bit of a picture in it, Like in the masterchief one, i amdmit that, but then i change it, i do things to it in photoshop.

No, I don't think you stole them. I mean you're really good with photoshop but they look too flashy for me.

Just wondering what does the [M] stand for?

Hmm, while they all look different, they all look similar. They all seem to have those yellow streaks flying from behind the character(looks like sparks or something) and I think it removes any sort of separation you could have from them.

Oh, and using pre-existing images is a common practice for making signatures. Hell, even Azeroth's previous thread right before this one was doing the same thing and I didn't see anyone throwing a fuss over it. Why such a big deal over these--the fact that they look cool?

They're saying he took a wallpaper and just resized it. I stole a picture from a wallpaper and put a crappy background behind it.

I think they look great, I've made signatures with photoshop, not as good as these though. I'll post them If I find them.

::EDIT::
here they are, I used tutorials for them though.

I think my sig is pretty cool, I didn't do much though, I got a friend with a computer drawing board thingy to add the cool edges.. (they are supposed to be transparent but it was made for a darker site)
